Hi, lunamatiz. Thank you for your interest in the Luna Project. If you would like to submit your pedigree in the format we require for the patriarch page, I will be glad to post it there for you. Thanks again and good luck with your research!

Hello. My name is Melanie Blades Bellido De Luna. My maternal grandfather was Jose(ph) Louis (Luis) Bellido De Luna Reine (Reinee); He was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, on October 1883 or 1884. His father was Carlos Bellido De Luna Montane and his mother was Marie Reine (Reinee). My grandfather's brother was Carlos (Charles) Bellido De Luna Reine (Reinee), who married Teresa Garcia Guerrero.My grandfather was married three times: First to Asuncion Bujosa Godea, Second time to Filomena Delery and his third and final marriage to Carmelina (Carmen) Carames y Perez. My mother is one of the offspring of that marriage. My grandfather's grandfather was Jose Gumersindo Arcadio Bellido De Luna Guzman who married Maria Luisa Montane Falcon(e). Jose Gumersindo Arcadio Bellido De Luna's father was Gumersindo Bellido de Luna, who was born in Jaen, Spain, in the 18th century, and who traveled to Havana, Cuba, where he married Maria Magdalena Guzman. So I have a gap regarding Gumersindo Bellido De Luna, the one born in Jaen, Spain. I would like to find out more, such as if he had any brothers or sisters, and what family members, if any stayed in Spain.
